CCIN OCC WEST
10 YEARS OF UNITY, SERVICE & IMPACT
Today we celebrate 10 years of incredible collaboration
10 years of standing together in the fight against crime and responding to emergencies when it matters most.
CCIN OCC WEST was founded in 2016 by the Director of BCI SECURITY, Corinda Loots, originally known as the Wesrand Security Group. What started as a vision to bring role players together quickly grew into something far greater.
After joining the CCIN network, Corinda’s dedication and active involvement led to her becoming an EXCO member. Together with Dr. Mikail Reza Patel, Founder of CCIN, a decision was made to structure the network into dedicated regions North, South, East, and West.
And from that vision… CCIN OCC WEST was born.
Today, CCIN proudly operates with 29 OCCs nationwide, strengthening coordination, communication, and rapid response across the country.
This group stands today as a powerful, vetted network of law enforcement, emergency services, community structures, and security companies all working together with one goal:
To protect. To respond. To save lives.
Over the past 10 years, we have shared:
Countless success stories
Moments of bravery and unity
And also heartbreaking losses through crime, illness, and the challenges of COVID-19
But through it all… not one step back was taken.
We stood firm. We stood together.

Message from Corinda Loots
“To each and every member thank you for 10 incredible years.
It was not easy bringing different security companies together onto one platform. Trust had to be built. Barriers had to be broken. But we all realized one thing if we want a safer world, we must stand together.
When we fight… we fight as one.
